PLANTING 
DIRECTIONS 
The chief care to be taken during 
planting operations is to prevent the 
drying out of the roots. The fine root- 
lets of the young trees are extremely 
delicate and may be seriously injured 
even by a few minutes exposure to 
the sun or drying winds. It is best 
to keep the trees in an ordinary pail 
with enough muddy water to cover 
the roots. Trees should not be kept 
lying on the ground while a hole is 
being dug. 
The hole should be made large 
enough to receive the roots without 
cramping them. The roots are inserted 
in the hole, spread out and loose soil 
firmly tamped with the hands. The 
tree should be set upright and planted 
to the same depth at which it grew 
in the nursery. This depth is indicated 
by a ring of light bark around the 
tree at ground level. 
A test of proper planting is to give 
each tree a slight tug after setting. 
If the tree pulls up, it is not properly 
set. Failure to set the tree firmly 
and at the right depth usually results 
in death or stunting. After the tree 
is planted it should be watered and 
judicious watering should be done at 
least once each week, especially during
